| - Beware of strategies that limit XML to the role of
middleware; it's more than that
- Support the vendor-independent development of
standard schemas (DTDs) and namespaces
- Beware of sleazy dodges: nonstandard extensions,
incomplete UTF-8/UTF-16 support
- Insist on real XSL support: the ability to render
formatting objects, not just HTML tags
- W3C members: work within W3C to make sure that
the requirements for international publishing are met
- Support platform-independent tools vendors
- Support the only organization dedicated to
interoperable document standards in general: OASIS
(http://www.oasis-open.org)
